THanks so much for the advice everyone!!
Ninnie - at the risk of sounding really dumb, what is straight line cross hatching??
I don't know the measurements of your quilt, but say the blocks are 6", then you can divide it into 4 2"areas measure in 2' and go straight across on all the blocks in each direction and then do the same in the other direction. It looks like a big x and o board, but is so cute with all the little quilted squares
When you get to your fancy cut middles, you could do 1'4 in around them in the inside and they would stand out more. the cross hatching would not have to go through them, just pick it up again on the other side of them. I don't know if this makes sense or not! :D
